Disaster Risk Reduction and Humanitarianism Society: Social Secretary

Hiya, I'm Bella and I am super excited to put my name forward to continue as a Social Secretary for the Disaster Risk Reduction and Humanitarianism Society alongside Laura Bainbridge.

I feel incredibly proud of the work the interim committee have completed so far from the Humanitarian Innovation evening, to pub socials, a movie night and our extremely successful (and yum) bake sale! It has been a joy to meet so many of you and to work alongside the rest of the committee, who have put in such hard work and passion over the last couple of months.

Looking towards the future I feel beyond excited about the direction the society is going in and feel inspired to take the society further and plan lots more fun socials! Future plans and socials include volunteer trips, academic conferences and debates, a trip to Geneva and coming up our winter ball followed by the spring ball later in the year!! A goal of mine is to ensure plenty of smaller events are put on such as bowling nights, debates, charity fundraisers and pub quizzes (to name a few) as these events provide the opportunity to meet like minded people whilst trying to make a positive impact and having some fun.

I would appreciate any opportunity to continue my interim role as social secretary with Laura as I believe we make a fantastic team (plus put on brilliant parties) and feel excited about the opportunity to continue and develop together - thank you for considering my application :))

Hey, I'm Laura :) 

I'm really excited to put my name forward to continue as one of the social secretaries for DRRH Soc alongside Bella Richards! 

First of all I'd just like to thank you all for your enthusiasm, it makes me so happy to see how many of you have participated in our events so far. These past couple of months as a social secretary have been so much fun and I'm so proud of what we have achieved since forming this committee 3 months ago. The team are so driven and passionate, and I believe that's really been apparent in the events we have held! Pub socials, movie nights, the Humanitarian Innovation Evening... there has been something for everyone! We have loved meeting every single one of you. 

Going forward, we are in the midst of planning many more events such as our own pub quiz, volunteering days, another innovation evening and... a Winter Ball! The Winter Ball has been a personal goal of mine since starting this role, and I'm so happy to announce that the venue is confirmed and we are ready to provide you with an evening of music, good food and fab company :)

I believe Bella and I make an incredible team and I would be honoured to continue this role with her. Thank you for considering my application and I hope we get to accomplish much more together.
